jamieboy Posted April 13, 2008 Share Posted April 13, 2008 hey, so my ex broke up with me 3 months ago now, until Saturday night i hadnt really been interested in dating however i felt really good on saturday, got talking to a really nice girl, got her number and went home. The next day she text me saying " hi, see i bet you thought i would forget you " etc etc, i text her back and we had a good conversation, she was on the way to work complaining she was tired and she would never drink again etc , all liught hearted, i said we should meet up this week or something and she agreed. Anyway she started work so that was the end of that conversation I text her this morning asking her if she wanted to do something the end of this week and as of yet ( this was 9 hours ago) i havent had a reply. Whats the best thing to do? see i used to be good with this stuff, and act cool and not get worried if someone didnt text back straight away but i guess my confidence was shaken a bit because of my ex and now because she hasnt replied today im thinking hmmm is she now not interested!! advice?

RelaxByWater84 Posted April 13, 2008 Share Posted April 13, 2008 She could just be working later or had plans after work. I usually try to call people or text people back within a 24 hr. period. Link to comment
kuiks8 Posted April 13, 2008 Share Posted April 13, 2008 9 hours ago...WAIT!!!! let her respond back if she doesn't respond by wednesday call her and ask her out...texting is so impersonal.. wait for her response... you will do fine...practice makes perfect, its like riding a bike and all those cliches!!! Welcome back to the dating scene! Link to comment
CallingAllAngels Posted April 13, 2008 Share Posted April 13, 2008 I would not text. I would pick up the phone and call. That's the best way to go about this. Maybe the text didn't go through. ALWAYS CALL. Link to comment
Portage Posted April 13, 2008 Share Posted April 13, 2008 I've missed text messages. Give her till tomorrow and then give her a shout. The phone is the most personal form of communication next to 3D Use it Link to comment
jamieboy Posted April 13, 2008 Author Share Posted April 13, 2008 lol thanx for the advice guys, i feel like an 80 year old who hasn't dated for 50 years not a 23 year old that hasnt for 2 years, see i would call her but if she did get the text doesnt that look a little pushy??? Link to comment
Sirquacksalot Posted April 13, 2008 Share Posted April 13, 2008 Not necessarily, you just have to make sure to approach it properly. Sounding desperate on the phone will likely be a turn-off, so take it lightly. Something like 'Hey, just thought I'd give you a call, see whats up...' (talk for awhile, presuming she has the time, and then if she hasn't said 'Oh, right, I got your text and....' then bring up the weekend thing offhandedly. Link to comment
jamieboy Posted April 14, 2008 Author Share Posted April 14, 2008 hmm ok well i took the advice and i called her, the first time i think she answered it in her pocket because there was lots of rustling, so i called back and it rang and went onto answerphone, i left a message, guess the ball is in her court though, still if she doesnt respond, would seem kinda weird but hey thats life lol Link to comment
